International. ISSA, the global association of the cleaning industry, reported that ISSA Show North America was included in the Trade Show Executive's (TSE) 2024 Gold Class 100, a list that groups the 100 largest trade shows held in the United States.

According to Trade Show Executive, the Gold 100 ranking was based on net floor space paid for exhibit space, an indicator of industry demand and the magnitude of each event.

"Being recognized among the nation's largest and most influential trade shows reflects the passion and purpose that drives the cleaning and facility solutions industry," said John Barrett, CEO of ISSA. "ISSA Show North America continues to be the meeting point between innovation and action, and the place where industry leaders come together to connect, learn and lead."

ISSA Show North America, held annually, brings together cleaning professionals, facility managers, distributors, manufacturers and industry representatives from different countries. The program includes training activities, product presentations, certification programs and technical update spaces.

The 2024 Gold 100 Award recipients were recognized during the TSE Gold 100 Summit and Awards, held September 4-6, 2025, at the Ritz-Carlton Bacara hotel in Santa Barbara, California. The meeting brought together organizers of commercial events to share experiences and strategies on trade fair management.

ISSA indicated that it is already in the planning phase of the ISSA Show North America 2025. The full list of 2024 honorees can be found in the official announcement of Trade Show Executive.
